He scored 94 runs in the first innings and 81 runs in the second innings.

Mohammad Abbas bagged 5/33 and 5/62 to script Pakistan's massive 373-run victory over Australia in the Abu Dhabi Test. Pakistan won the two-match series 1-0 after the first Test in Dubai had ended in a draw.

Australia were set a big target of 538 to win the second Test after some useful contributions from the Pakistan batting line-up saw them declare at 400/9. "The way he bowled, he was the best bowler on either side".

Abbas jolted the Australians in the seventh over of the day when he removed a solid-looking Head, getting an edge to substitute wicketkeeper Mohammad Rizwan, deputising for Sarfraz Ahmed.

Australia's grim prospects ahead of the home summer were writ large as they suffered their fourth-highest losing Test margin by runs.

Former captain Steve Smith and ex-opening batsman David Warner have not featured after being banned for 12 months for their part in the incident.

Thanking those who gathered at the airport to receive him, the medium pacer said, "I am always available for those seeking to play cricket". The way my team played the first match, we nearly won it but couldn't.

"Obviously really disappointing to have them five for 57 on day one and we let that opportunity slip", said Paine.

Paine agreed with Sarfraz's assessment of Abbas, the first Pakistani fast bowler to take a 10-wicket haul in a Test since Mohammad Asif against Sri Lanka at Kandy in 2006.

"It's bitterly disappointing, no doubt". Though Australia, at 155/7, would be forced to ask for a limping Khwaja's contributions at the face of a defeat, the left hander is hardly expected to repeat his first Test feat.

The teams next meet in a three-match Twenty20 worldwide series which begins on October 24.
